Gratitude is a practice. When we are in the midst of disaster—whether it’s a car accident, a life-changing medical diagnosis, losing your job, or breaking up with the one you love—tragedy has a way of breaking us, but it also reminds us of the small things we need to be grateful for. Tragedy is an opportunity to root ourselves in gratitude.
Gratitude is the embodiment of not taking things for granted, and it is one of the most transformative forces in our lives. Practicing gratitude helps keep life in perspective and serves as a bridge to healing during times of profound grief, pain, and challenge.
In this episode, our host, Hawah Kasat, sits down with Reggie Hubbard, philosopher, activist, international educator, and founder of Active Peace Yoga, to discuss all things gratitude and grief. Reggie shares his deeply personal story of surviving a stroke, his journey to recovery, and how he uses gratitude, sound, and mindfulness to heal himself and transform his community. Together, they explore the lessons learned from adversity, the transformative power of grief, and how cultivating spiritual resilience can lead to collective healing.
In this episode Hawah and Reggie discuss:
The transformative power of gratitude
Turning tragedy into triumph
Seeing adversity as a teacher
Humans being universally connected throgh grief
Sound as a healing tool
The intersection of spirituality and political activism
Collective liberation through individual healing
Breaking the myth of invincibility
